The Ghosts of Belfast by Stuart Neville

4.0

Nearly a decade ago, I added this book to my Audible account and about the same time, I also downloaded Dead I Well May Be by Adrian McKinty. I know I listened to one of them, but I cannot for the life of me remember which, as it was before I tracked anything in Goodreads. Since The Ghosts of Belfast features actual ghosts, I decided to listen to it this week, and I'm so glad I did.

Gerry Fegan is haunted by the ghosts of people he killed during The Troubles in Belfast. His only hope for peace is to kill the people he worked for who ordered the killings he committed. They won't go quietly, either, especially when they figure out Gerry is behind the string of new murders. The description says this is book #1 of the Jack Lennon Investigations series, but I'll be honest, I don't remember hearing a character named Jack Lennon in the audiobook, but I'm sure I wasn't paying as close attention to the book as I could have. Regardless, I thought the plot was fantastic and the longer I listened the more I enjoyed the characters and the story. Gerard Doyle is also a fantastic narrator.
